Back in HS, we had an:

A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H days schedule.

A,B, E,F days were single periods. Usually 7-9 classes most students had. Although in Senior year it was usually around 5-7 if you played your cards right as a freshman and Sophmore. C,D,G,H were double periods, which meant classes were 1hr 30 mins. It could be tough, but on two of those days I was able to go home at 11AM. So not too shabby depending on your schedule.

thats CRAZY

Lucky Squirrel....Ours is

93-100 = A

85-92 = B

77-84= C

70-76= D

69 and Below= F

[Geeno_56 1]

80-100=Level 4( A )

70-79=level 3( B )

60-69=level 2 ( C )

50-59=level 1( D )

49 and below a fail

[McCabe24 0]

A- 80-100

B- 70-79

C- 60-69

D- 50-59

F- <50

An A+ is usually >90%, that's the only +/- mark people care about.

We have a tougher system up in the English room but I don't think that is enforced.

[kovalchuk71 212]

Wow.....I wish we had 80-100 for an a :(

On my report card we just get a percentage but we are marked by percents or by level 1,2,3,4.

I have 4 75 minute periods and a 1 hour lunch I think..that might now be totally accurate.

[Eazy_b97 1]

In our University

12 - 90-100%

11 - 84 - 89%

10 - 80% - 84 %

9 - 77% - 79%

8 - 74% - 76%

7 - 70-73%

6 - 67-69%

5 - 64-66%

4 - 60 - 63%

3 - 57 - 59%

2 - 53 - 56%

1 - 50 - 53%

0 - Under 50

You need a 3 average to stay out of academic probation.

For High school we had straight percentages. We did daily classes (math 5 times a week, etc..) and were split into semesters. It was a 1-2-3-4 schedule one day, then a 1-2-4-3 the next, so sports didn't screw up one particular class, but it was the same 4 classes everyday until second semester.

You guys seriously have the easiest grading systems in the world. Our teachers can use whatever they want for their scale, but most look something like this.

A: 95 and up

A-: 93-94.99

B+: 90-92.99

B: 87-89.99

B-: 84-86.99

C+: 81-83.99

C:78-80.99

C-: 76-77.99

D+: 74-75.99

D: 71-73.99

D-: 60-70.99

F: Below 60

I get all A's B)

We have 7 50 minute classes/day, same classes every day. Some elective classes you switch at the semester, but most are full year, every day classes.

Mine's the same grading school but 4 1hr 20min periods per day. Do you to school in Vancover?

I'm asuming most of you guys are from America and Canada. Is it true that most of your test are Multiple Choice Questions. Even the SATS?

[Number 75 0]

90-100: A

80-89: B

70-79: C

60-69: D

0-50: E

We have 9 41 minute periods. We're one of the few schools in the area that doesn't do block scheduling though.

The SAT is all multiple choice, except for the essay section that they added last year.

The college that I go to uses a lot of multiple choice questions on tests. The reason is that with multiple choice questions you can use those Scantron sheets. That way the teacher just feeds the sheets into a machine and it grades them. Cuts down on the amount of time teachers spend grading papers.

I've never understood why the US and Canadian systems differ like that. It's weird, although I wouldn't say that our schools are any easier than yours. I imagine that the proportion of students scoring in any given range is roughly the same, but we get a better looking letter grade out of it.

That said, when we apply to universities, it's all the same, because most schools give out numerical grades so your averages are calculated from those...it's not really an advantage of any sort, except maybe for when you have to deal with your parents - you can say that you got an "A" instead of a "B," or a "B" instead of a "C." Just tell your parents that your C is really a B in Canada next time. :lol:

EDIT: You know, I really hated scantron when I was in school. I also found that the profs took just as long, if not LONGER to return exams. I mean, how long does it take to run a stack of cards through a damn machine? Profs are just lazy bastards.
